How Hurford Drive, Thatcham prices moved
The chart tracks the median Hurford Drive, Thatcham house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 1996 to 2013. The dashed line restates each year in 2026 money, so the two lines separate exactly as much as inflation has eroded the cash figure.
| Decade | Years with sales | Median paid | In today's money |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1990s | 4 | £121,500 | £269,787 |
| 2000s | 5 | £255,000 | £464,535 |
| 2010s | 2 | £305,000 | £430,050 |
The highest yearly median on record for Hurford Drive, Thatcham is £350,000 in 2011; the lowest is £95,000 in 1996. Across the full 18-year record the cash median has moved from £95,000 to £305,000.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £206,077, so the real change over the whole record is +115.8% — about +4.63% a year after inflation. Cash growth and real growth are not the same story, and the gap is the part most price reports leave out.
Over the last decade alone the difference is stark: +40.2% in cash against +6.0% once inflation is removed. A buyer who sold at the end of that decade would have needed the real figure, not the headline one, to know whether they had actually gained.

Section 06
Ownership and new build in Hurford Drive, Thatcham
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 112 freehold — 0.0% of the market. Tenure is not a detail: a leasehold flat and a freehold house are different assets, and mixing them into one median hides the difference.

|---|---|---|---|
| Leasehold | 0 | 0.0% | — |
| Freehold | 112 | 100.0% | £259,000 |
A further 2 transfers for this area are on the register but are left out of every figure above. HM Land Registry marks them as additional price paid entries: repossessions, buy-to-let portfolio moves, transfers between companies or family, and sales at a discount such as right to buy. They are real records but they are not open-market prices, and including them would drag the median somewhere no buyer ever paid.
Section 09

Quick answers
Common questions about this data
What is the average house price in Hurford Drive, Thatcham?

How many homes have sold in Hurford Drive, Thatcham?

When were Hurford Drive, Thatcham house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £350,000, set in 2011. That is the cash figure; measured in 2026 money the peak may fall in a different year, because inflation reshapes the series.

£2,019 per square metre, from the 16 sales where an EPC floor area could be matched to the address. Price per square metre strips out size, so a flat and a house can be compared on the same basis.

The latest sale shown here completed on 14 Nov 2024. HM Land Registry publishes Price Paid Data monthly and a sale can take a month or two to appear after completion, so the most recent weeks are always incomplete.
